Medical Massage in Augusta, GA
Outcome-based treatment addressing physician-referred conditions such as post-surgical recovery, scar tissue, and chronic pain management.
About Medical Massage
Medical massage is distinguished from other massage modalities by its outcome-based orientation: sessions are structured around a specific clinical goal, often in coordination with a referring physician, physical therapist, or chiropractor. Rather than a general wellness session, medical massage applies specific techniques directed at a diagnosed condition.
Common conditions treated with medical massage include post-surgical recovery (reducing scar tissue adhesions, restoring range of motion), whiplash and motor vehicle accident injuries, nerve compression syndromes, chronic tension headaches with a cervicogenic component, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction. Your therapist will review any documentation you bring from your provider and structure the session accordingly.
Medical massage may be covered by health insurance when ordered by a physician for specific conditions. We recommend contacting your insurance provider in advance. Clients are encouraged to bring any relevant medical records, imaging reports, or provider notes to their first appointment.
